Everything our 17-year old Samuel does, he does thoroughly and cheerfully. Whether he’s completing homework, running errands, reading to siblings, practicing basketball, eating dinner, or mopping the garage, his enthusiasm is contagious.Currently at senior at UT Tyler, he took his MCAT this summer and plans to attend medical school after graduating next spring. Samuel does an amazing job of balancing his academic pursuits with family life, spiritual devotion, and community service. We’re all going to miss him when he leaves home, but none more than Gabriel, who is Sam’s biggest fan and constant shadow.
